Lent 25–God’s Never failing, Never ending love (the kind that we are called to)

For the next two days we will be looking at an interesting exchange between Peter and Jesus, but in a very real way, it is between Jesus and us!

This is a great song by the group Storyhill. Unfortunately this is also the best quality sound I was able to get. So, I have included the lyrics. Whether or not they were intending the song to come across this way, they have described agape (unconditional, self giving love). This is the love which God loves us and we are called to love others. It is a love that does not give up, even when all else tells us to. We rest and are sent out in the grace of God which “finds us”. Why? Because God loves us!

Love Will Find You

from Storyhill (self-titled)

You may be watching from a safe distance
You may be so close you can taste the blood
You may have headed for higher ground
You may be drowning in the flood

Chorus
No matter what you do
Love will find you

You may have lost what little faith you have
You may believe with all your heart
You may be pulling yourself together again
You may be falling apart

Chorus

One of you sees that love’s a long lost friend
One of you can’t recognize her face
One of you runs to her with open arms
One of you falls down is disgrace

You may see a million different gateways home
You may think there’s only one way through
You may be waiting for the kingdom to come
You may believe it’s in you

Chorus
Chorus
No matter what you do
Love will find you
Love will find you
Love will find you
